....the following being extracts from a series of imprinted wax statement tablets located in the lower desk drawer, in the office at the residence of Malcolm Lewis and his family. It remains unclear, given the shadowy nature of Lewis and his wife's later professional affairs, who the tablets were aimed at or indeed why they were cast in wax. Some kind of messianic complex/cult episode may explain it, although that appears simplistic as the seemingly endcoded nature of the messages bears more resemblance to the output of various secret service encryption devices than it does to any religious philsosphy. They are curiously dated, if indeed they are dated, "Between the 19th and the 41st". Perhaps the strongest possibility is that Lewis was communicating with a person, persons or organisation ties with whom ties he was attempting to sever once and for all after previous and unsuccessful attempts to do so had been carried out. Forensic analysis of the tablets reveals that they were cast no more than a month before the discovery of Lewis' body in the pond at Plenitude Park. The frenzied and often scattergun development of these tablets in contrast to earlier discovered writings of Lewis', such as The Dictionary Word Book Of Words, has led his wife to speculate either that her late husband was not actually responsible for the tablets or that he was involved in some serious drug dependency at the time of casting. Either way, investigating authorities are sceptical of her stories as they appear to be obfuscational in nature. Her alibi, however, for the days that she reported him missing and claimed to then discover his body are extremely solid and she has been left to grieve....
